Committee forwards Valley Health master plan update amid proffer and traffic concerns
Jun 25, 2026
Valley Health presented a master development plan update for its Amherst Street campus, proposing a Medical Office Building, surgery expansion and future garages. Staff estimated a 6% campus traffic increase at build‑out and that up to 10% of new trips could use Linden Drive; committee members questioned the sufficiency and indexing of a $100,000 proffer, pedestrian access and parking and forwarded the item to Council with no recommendation.

Staff described the project as a rezoning/update to the master plan and noted the submission includes a revised proffer list dated June 2 that would supersede prior proffers.
